The word "Survivor."

I don't find survivor helpful or accurate.
I don't feel I am in a war - cancer is not my enemy - it is more like a confused group of cells was successful in doing what cells do- grow.

@edwendt I like your perspective on cancer cells as going innocently awry, rather than as a sinister enemy. I meditated on having a more positive view of cancer in my body and for me it helped to reduced stress.

I do agree with you. It’s from a place of calm and peace where I’m giving my body the opportunity to heal. Not from a place of war.
